Help Harvest Fruit Trees

Mariah at Lettuce Link asked us to repost our call for volunteers to help harvest fruit trees so that they can donate it to local food banks.

“I’m still particularly looking for folks to volunteer as Harvest Leads in Wallingford,” Mariah adds.

Here’s the skinny:

Harvest Fruit for Donation!

The Community Fruit Tree Harvest, a program of Lettuce Link at Solid Ground, serves our community by gleaning fresh fruit from backyard trees to donate to food banks and free meal programs. Fruit Tree owners put their trees on a list to be harvested by teams of volunteers. The volunteers then take the fruit directly to the people who need it.

There is an abundance of fruit in Seattle, and the Community Fruit Tree Harvest cuts down on waste while ensuring that members of the community living on low incomes and otherwise struggling to feed their families have access to fresh, organically grown fruit!
